Did anyone else just get spammed?

My mailbox is flooded with emails notifying me of responses to various threads I'm subscribed to. Trouble is, I unsubscribed from a bunch I never subscribed to in the first place just a few days ago.

Meanwhile, I couldn't log on to this site for the past fifteen or so minutes, while others have clearly been able to. I pinged it and everything, and got the "unknown host" message.

Some gremlin got a hold of my computer? :(
 
I also had problems loggin on to this site, kept getting a time-out error.
 
Actually, now that I notice, these emails have been accumulating since Friday -- around 250 of them!

Good thing I didn't bother checking my email for two days... :rolleyes:
 
Oops, must've missed that...I tend to use the "View New Posts" option instead of searching through individual sections. Thanks. :eek:

I'll have to remember to uncheck that email notification box every time now, I guess. So annoying. Wish he could get that fixed...
 
To turn this feature off go to your usercp and click "Edit Options". Then make sure that "Use 'Email Notification' by default?" is set to No.

That way you won't need to uncheck that box...

Also, when you reply or make a new post, make sure the "email notification" box under the message window is unchecked.  That's the easiest way I know of to keep from getting them.
Click to expand...

If you click on the "Unsubscribe from all threads" in one of those stupid emails you won't get anymore.
